Uttaranchal Institute of Management (UIM) organised a Career Planning session on 12 August, 2026 at Swami Vivekananda Auditorium featuring an insightful and motivational interaction with our esteemed speaker, Mr. Manuj Mittal Chief Mentor at Career Launcher, Dehradun & an alumnus of IIM Calcutta who regularly gets featured across media (including prime-time National Television too) for his achievements. The session focused on personal growth, happiness, goal-setting, and developing a positive attitude towards life.
The session began with a warm welcome to Mr. Manuj Mittal, followed by the traditional presentation of a sapling and memento as a token of respect and gratitude presented by Director of UIM, Prof. (Dr.) Pradeep Suri.
Mr. Mittal shared valuable insights on Organisational Behaviour, Attitude, Goal-Setting, Reading Habits, and taking control of one’s life. His message, “Attitude builds Altitude,” highlighted how a positive mindset can influence both personal and professional growth. He also emphasised setting substantial goals, developing a regular reading habit, and taking responsibility for the direction of one’s own life. He referred to factual data, the vision and ideology of the United Nations, and the importance of happiness in leading a meaningful life.
One of the major highlights of the session was a video showcasing the importance of happiness, which presented factual insights and encouraged students to reflect on their priorities. Towards the end, Mr. Mittal played an inspiring song dedicated to motivate the youth, leaving the audience with an energetic message.
The session concluded with heartfelt gratitude by our senior student Ms. Shristi who thanked the Competition Preparation Cell (CPC) and the team for organizing the event, along with a special acknowledgment to Mr. Manuj Mittal. She thanked him for sharing his valuable thoughts and inspiring the students to set meaningful goals, develop a positive attitude and strive towards a purposeful and successful life.
